RENAULT “HANDS-FREE” CARD: use

(2/3)

Locking the vehicle

There are three ways to lock the ve-

hicle: remotely, using the button 3, or

using the RENAULT card.

Remote locking

With the RENAULT card on you, and

doors and tailgate closed, move away

from the vehicle: it will lock automati-

cally once you have left zone 1.
Note: the distance at which the vehicle

locks depends on the surroundings.

The hazard warning lights flash twice

and a beep sounds to indicate that the

doors have locked.

The beep may be switched off. Consult

an approved dealer

If a door or the tailgate is open or not

properly closed, or a card is in the

passenger compartment (or the card

reader) the vehicle will not lock. In this

situation, no beep sounds and the

hazard warning lights do not flash.

Locking using the button 3

If you want to lock your vehicle, the card

must be nearby (adjacent garage etc.),

with the door and boot closed. Press

button 3 on the handle of the driver’s

door. The vehicle will lock. If a door or

the boot is open or not closed properly,

the vehicle will quickly lock/unlock.
Note: a RENAULT card must be within

the vehicle's access zone (zone 1) to

be able to lock the vehicle using the

button.
Special note

If you wish to check that the doors are

locked after locking using the button 3,

you have approximately three seconds

to try the door handles without unlock-

ing them.

After this delay, the hands-free mode

is activated once again and any move-

ment of a handle will unlock the vehicle.

If the vehicle is fitted with remote window closing, two quick presses on the button 3 automatically causes all the windows to

close and the doors to lock (please see the information on “Electric windows, Electric sunroof” in Section 3).

1.7

With the engine running, if having

once opened and closed a door, the

card is no longer in the passenger com-

partment, the message “Keycard not

detected” (accompanied by a warning

beep once the speed passes a thres-

hold value) will tell you that the card is

no longer in the vehicle. This avoids

you driving away after having dropped

off a passenger who has the card, for

example.
The warning disappears when the card

is detected again.

RENAULT “HANDS-FREE” CARD: use

(3/3)

Locking using the RENAULT card
With the doors and luggage compart-

ment closed, press button 5: the vehi-

cle will lock.
The hazard warning lights flash twice

to indicate that the doors have locked.
Note: the maximum distance at which

the vehicle locks depends on the sur-

roundings.

Special features

The vehicle will not lock if:
– a door or the tailgate is open or not

properly closed;

– a card is still in zone 6 (or in the card

reader) and no other card is in the

external detection zone.

After locking/unlocking the vehicle

or the tailgate only using the but-

tons on the RENAULT card, remote

locking and unlocking in hands-free

mode are deactivated.
To reactivate the hands-free mode:

restart the vehicle.

1.8

To deactivate deadlocking

Unlock the vehicle using button 1 on

the RENAULT card.
The hazard warning lights flash once to

indicate that the doors have been un-

locked.

RENAULT CARD: deadlocking

If the vehicle is equipped with a dead-

locking function, this allows you to lock

the opening elements and to prevent

the doors from being unlocked using

the interior handles (for example, by

breaking the window and then trying to

open the door from the inside).

Never use deadlocking if

someone is still inside the

vehicle.

To activate deadlocking

You can choose between two deadlock-

ing activation modes:
– press button 2 twice in quick succes-

sion;

– or, press the button on the driver’s

door handle 3 twice in quick succes-

sion.

The hazard warning lights flash five

times to indicate locking.

Activating deadlocking also re-

motely closes the windows and/or

the electric sunroof, on equipped

vehicles.
After activating the deadlocking

function using button 2, remote

locking and unlocking in hands-free

mode are deactivated.
To reactivate the “hands-free” mode:

restart the vehicle.

corporated in button 1 does not light up

when trying to lock the doors and tail-

gate, etc.), first check that the doors

and tailgate are properly closed. If they

are properly closed and the fault is still

present, contact an approved Dealer.
Also make sure that locking has not

been inadvertently deactivated.
If it has, switch the ignition off and on

again and reactivate it.
